Osteophytes and progression of knee osteoarthritis.
OBJECTIVES Osteophytes are thought to stabilize an osteoarthritic joint, thereby preventing structural progression. Meagre longitudinal data suggest, however, that they are associated with an increased risk of structural progression. Our objective was to evaluate the effect of osteophyte size on radiographic progression in osteoarthritis (OA). METHODS Using data from a natural history study o...
متن کاملChondrocalcinosis, osteophytes and osteoarthritis.
An association between osteoarthritis (OA) and radiographic evidence of chon-drocalcinosis (CC) has been recognised for years. Crystals of calcium pyrophos-phate dihydrate (CPPD) may be found in synovial fluid from patients with OA who are relatively asymptomatic as well as from those who are experiencing an acute flare up of joint pain due to an attack of pseudogout. Whether CC is the cause of...
متن کاملEarly knee osteoarthritis
Concepts regarding osteoarthritis, the most common joint disease, have dramatically changed in the past decade thanks to the development of new imaging techniques and the widespread use of arthroscopy that permits direct visualisation of intra-articular tissues and structure. MRI and ultrasound allow the early detection of pre-radiographic structural changes not only in the peri-articular bone ...
متن کاملKnee contact forces are not altered in early knee osteoarthritis.
OBJECTIVE This study calculated knee contact forces (KCF) and its relations with knee external knee adduction moments (KAM) and/or flexion moments (KFM) during the stance phase of gait in patients with early osteoarthritis (OA), classified based on early joint degeneration on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). We aimed at assessing if altered KCF are already present in early structural degenerat...
متن کاملKnee osteoarthritis at the early stage: The four-week effect of lateral wedge insole on pain and risk of falls
Background: Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is associated with a decrease in function, increase in pain and risk of falls. Lateral wedge insole (LWI) is commonly prescribed in KOA to improve pain and function. Our study aimed to 1) evaluate the clinical symptoms and risk of falls in early KOA and compare with controls; 2) evaluate the immediate and four-week effect of LWI. ...
